Mental Health Therapist – Michigan (Remote, Part-Time, 1099)
Who we are At Stance Health, we believe no one in chronic pain should have to suffer alone. We exist for the millions of people whose lives are consumed by chronic pain—people who feel unheard, dismissed, and stuck in a cycle of suffering. Chronic pain isn’t just physical; it takes a profound toll on mental health, with rates of anxiety and depression five times higher among those who experience it. We’re here to change that. Stance Health connects people in pain with therapists who truly understand them, therapists who provide evidence-based, compassionate care that treats both the body and the mind. Our mission is to make this care accessible, empowering patients to reclaim their lives. If you’re passionate about helping people break free from the grip of chronic pain, we’d love to have you on our team. Professional Development Opportunity If you are not experienced treating clients with chronic pain, we have a training program developed with our Clinical Director, the Director of the Chronic Pain Research Center at The University of Michigan, to upskill you to provide compassionate, clinically effective care. Please note your interest in this program in your application.
